I don't know if this is just my shitty server, but does anyone else get this in theirs? So far since FW began, only 3 unions have lost it, and now a 4th union holds it. Every time one of those unions lost the FW, people immediately began to leave the union to join the winning one and eventually they died out.. I actually cant believe how stupid some of these people are. They think that holding the Fortress means everything. My guild recently lost the Fortress and today i overheard someone saying that our union is weak now just because 40 people showed up to defend it when we held it for about 8 months.

Idk, does this happen to any other server? Or is it just Venice...

Silkroad is a game of bragging rights. People spend thousands of dollars on Sun items just to be a little bit stronger. It only makes sense that they would guild hop to the current "strongest" guild for bragging rights.

Yes but holding the Fortress does not mean they are the strongest guild. After 8 months of defending we just slowly got bored of it with less and less people showing up to defend. You cant tell me that because a union took the fortress they are "the strongest". Thats what people don't get. When we had everyone there to defend, that wouldn't even scratch the gate but because we stopped caring people just automatically assume they are the strongest now.

I remember guild joined our union, taken over the fortress, betrayed us and left. Guild name Kizil_Kan. Then failed trying to defend it without union. Damn funny. :D

Kizil_Kan only got the fortress because it was the first bandit fortress and the current strongest guild(oTToMaN_TuRK) sent all their high levels to ParS to take the Bandit fortress. Thus leaving an empty oTToMaN_TuRK guild to defend. Kizil_Kan took it, ParS realized Bandit fort is shit, sent all their high levels back, and took Jangan again np the next week. Meanwhile FA union(can't even call it that because DoppleGanger ran the show) took Bandit fort pretty easily.
